Inside The Bills

For the most part he’s squarely focused on raising his game, but entering year two EJ Manuel has made it clear that he won’t hesitate to hold teammates accountable on offense.

As we profiled in our Camp Countdown on Buffalobills.com today (Saturday), there are reasons why Buffalo’s offense should be able to return to the up tempo pace it enjoyed early last season with Manuel at the controls. Manuel also sounds more willing to call out a teammate if they’re not living up to expectations and vice versa.

“It’s about holding each other accountable,” Manuel said. “If you have a rough day, it’s not like we’re going to come down on you. We’re going to critique what we need to critique. Just like if I had a rough day, my receivers or a running back will say, ‘Hey, you should have done this.’ I think it’s just holding each other accountable and that just comes with having a relationship with each another.”
